    When I removed mine, a razor blade worked for everything besides the rear window (defrost). I was not sure what to do there, so I went to the local auto paint & supply store and they gave me this stuff to use. It smelled horrible, and they stressed to me not to get any on my skin. But it got the tint off in a matter of minutes. I can't remember for the life of me what it was called though.

      When I did my grand prix, I did all with windows in under 20min. My 240, me and my dad spend well over 10hours on it. It was at least 8 years old, 2 layers of tint, and then the factory clear shit. We took out the windows we could and the set them flat and soaked them with paint and decal remover, it took a couple times, but got it off. I also just replaced the rear window with one that did not have tint.

      PM me for:
      Sandblasting(I use glass beads)
      Diesel repairs or performance products.

        Flamethrower, kicks ass, but not so good for the interior.

                    It's not my car. I'll see if I can get it off myself.

                        Removing tint from windows...
                        -Peel actual film off(adhesive will still be on the window)
                        -Use foaming window cleaner and a razorblade. Clean adhesive off window.
                        Rear windows...
                        Peel film off
                        -use foaming window cleaner and steel wool. if that doesnt work, use a normal rag/towel and adhesive remover(buy industrial shit)
